Sterilizers Get Eclipsed!
Nov 23 2007
Astell Scientific has been selected as Eclipse Scientific Group's chosen partner for the supply of sterilising equipment, and has just supplied twelve new units to the Group. Eclipse is one of Europe's leading independent laboratory groups, with an international reputation for high quality analysis, support and advice. In addition to their Head Office Laboratory at Chatteris, Cambridgeshire, Eclipse operates seven other UK laboratories and three in the Republic of Ireland.
Ensuring quality across Eclipse involves standardisation, not just of scientific protocols but also of equipment. In order to ensure that each laboratory uses the same equipment, Eclipse has set up a number of strategic partnerships to provide a standardised supplier base.
Managing the supplier base is the job of Eclipse's Simon Dedman. "In microbiological testing reliable, consistent sterilisation is absolutely essential. That makes the autoclave, which provides sterilisation of glassware, culture media and discarded bio-hazardous material, one of the most important pieces of equipment in the lab." he says, "We've worked with Astell for fifteen years and we've been more than happy with the quality of their products and service back-up, so it was a logical move to take them on board as a partner." The product that Astell has now supplied to most of Eclipse's laboratories is the 150 litre Swiftlock front loading autoclave, fitted with AutoFill and Advanced Water Cooling options.
